Thanks so much. KLSE down +3% while the web is down over 9% -- kind of annoying but I'm hanging in there.

Re Korea, here is a link to a fascinating article (especially
interesting to me since I will probably use Matthews Korea if
I go long there...)

Article may emphasize the sensational a bit...

Samples:

"If I wanted a chart for the whole Daewoo group's finances,
could I find it here?"

[....]

"Does it exist anywhere?"

"In chairman Kim's head."

Sample (from part 2, in post following the one I linked):

" In fact, "Desperate Survival" is the title of the
investment brochure handed us."

Don't miss the stuff on Malaysia and Indonesia, either...
selling out of the countries after the Malaysian police
raid their broker's and confiscate tapes of their conversations...
(The "nutburger factor" should not be underestimated....)

Hello MB

Re: ASIAN CRISIS

The shadow of a full-blown recession haunts the region as the financial crisis takes another lurch with markets plunging, industrial output tumbling and economic growth grinding into negative territory.

Here is a link to the story
